Ornithologi.^ hoc est de Avibus Historic Libri 

 XII. Francofurti, Typis Wolfgangi Richteri, sump- 

 tibus heredum Nicolai Bassaei. 16 10. folio. 



This edition, printed in double column, is without illustra- 

 tions, and has no particular merit. Another edition was printed 

 at Frankfort, 1 620-1635, where also a German translation, by 

 Peter Offenbach, appeared in folio, 1610-1640. 



Ornithologi^ hoc est de Avibus Historic Libri 



XII cum Indice septendecim linguarum copio- 



sissima sumptibus Marci Antonii Berniae. Bononiae, 

 apud Nicolaum Tebaldinum. 163 7- 1646. 3 vols, folio. 



Engraved title and numerous woodcuts. The books relating 

 to Falconry are the following : — " Liber quartus qui est de 

 Accipitribus in genere ; " " Liber quintus qui est de Accipitribus 

 in specie ; " " Liber sextus qui est de Falconibus in genere j " 

 " Liber septimus qui est de Falconibus in specie." 



At the end, " Index nominorum septendecim linguarum — sc, 

 Grseca, Hebraica, Arabica, Persica, ^gyptiaca, Indica [Amer. 

 Merid.], Italica, Gallica, Hispanica, Germanica, Flandrica, 

 Anglica, Polonica, Muscovitica, Illyrica, Turcica." 



The number of languages is sixteen, not seventeen. If the 

 Eastern vocabularies are not more accurate than the European 

 ones, the Index is not of much value. There are numerous 

 typographical errors; but on the whole this may be regarded 

 as the most preferable edition of the work, the type being 

 bold, clear, and not in double column, the illustrations 

 affording a further recommendation. Tomus alter, Libri 

 XIII.-XVIIL, 1645 ; Tomus tertius ac postremus, Libri XIX.- 

 XX., 1637.
